Sure, I cheated a bit on the broth and chicken because my girlfriend was sick and had to get this done as quick as possible. It took me 45 minutes this way.
I bought one of those pre-cooked oven roasted whole chickens from Vons/Safeway and just picked the meat off of that and threw it into the soup toward the end. Also, I used the carton of chicken broth, instead of making that from scratch.
You need:
1 onion(chopped)
3-4 carrots(chopped)
3-4 sticks of celery(chopped)
12-16oz of egg noodles
1 whole chicken
1 box of Matzo Meal
1 carton of Chicken Broth(also a plus to add vegetable broth)
Spices I used: Basil, Garlic Salt, Pepper, Parsley, Poultry Seasoning
I made the egg noodles, while simmering the broth, carrots, onions, celery, and then eventually through them in with the chicken.
I cooked the Matzo Balls separate and threw them in at the end too. There are two ways you can make these. Dense(as shown in the picture), or larger and fluffier(which I prefer, but didn't have time).
You mix 2 eggs, a tablespoon of veggie oil, and the contents of the Matzo Meal package together until thick. Throw this in the fridge for 15-20 minutes to harden. Not too much longer though or it won't be good. Take out of fridge, mold into 3-6 Balls, and dump into boiling water. Continue to boil for 15-20 minutes.
If you want the larger, fluffier balls: cover the pot as soon as you dump the balls into the boiling water and boil them for longer, like 30 minutes.
Enjoy.
If anyone who knows how to make a good Matzo Ball Soup, and wishes to add to this, please do. I know my brother makes the chicken and broth by boiling the chicken in the big pot.
